Due to time restraints, we thought that instead of doing the first draft all together, we could each choose a scene from our plot and write a script for that part. We will then join all the parts together to make it into a complete script, and then we will make new drafts of it to improve it.
I have never written a script in my life, so I thought that I had better look up some writing tutorials so that I could learn how to do it properly. I came across an extremely useful tutorial that was laid out in the style of a script, so I posted it into our group chat to help out anyone else who had never written a script before.
Jemma and Kira both wrote up stories of the script. The one which Jemma wrote had lots of camera angles in it, which will be really helpful when it comes to creating the storyboard. I took both of the stories from Jemma and Kira and wrote them up into a script format. Below, I have added the first draft of the script, which I will print out tomorrow so that we can annotate it and create a second draft and a final draft of the script.

I found it quite challenging to write the script, as I've never written one before. Obviously it isn't perfect, as it's the first draft, but I think I've gotten the layout mostly right.
I printed the script out to show the group, and then I began annotating it for parts that I'd missed or parts that need improving. Below, I have added some photos of the annotated script pages

After looking through all the corrections, I began to change the draft of the script on the computer. This didn't take too long, as the majority of the script just needed slight alterations, including Connor's surname added on to the front page of the script. Below, I have added the finished second (third official) draft of the script. I say third draft, as Jemma had written down the story with speech and camera angles, and I just wrote it up into a script format, so really we have 3 drafts now.
